ParticipantDitto Curt!
Great job by all the Colorado Karters we have some of the best drivers in the country right here in our home state. Now if we could only figure out how to get them all together locally on a regular basis they would raise the bar even more.

ParticipantExactly right Curt!
This past weekend in Utah provided the best racing we will see all year in karting (except of course for that week in Vegas), and in nearly every class the Colorado flag was flying high.
Christian’s and Sabre’s runs in S2 all weekend were legendary with Christian picking up the win on Saturday.
Ryan Rudolph and Mianna Wick represented our state well in S5 also.
And Stacey, I feel the same way about getting karters together. If only there was a regional series that acted as a feeder series to the national pro tour that all of our local racers and TEAMS could be apart of. We could call it the Rocky Mt. Pro Kart Challenge, or the SKUSA Mt. Region or something like that…Ah well, a kid can dream I guess.

ParticipantFalcone ruled this weekend!!! Great job.
It was great to see Colorado represented so well in all classes. If Sabre’ can’t win the next best thing is a Colorado kid winning so Christians win Saturday was awesome!
SKUSA is doing a great job and it is back to the old pro tour days with Vegas being the ultimate event, anyone that hasn’t tried one really needs to come experience a race. The Stock moto program in my opinion is the way to go, if only we could combine SKUSA/Rotax programs. The micro and mini max classes are the best thing going when you put a pencil to it ( my opinion)

ParticipantTony,
As usual you did a great job this weekend. To bad you lost that race to that old beat up fat guy. 😆

ParticipantTom Kutscher, David Cole, and several others were witness to you being beat by a very out of shape former racer, and poor excuse of an announcer.
I hear there is even video of the race floating around out there…

ParticipantGuys come on down this weekend and race at the new SBR MotorSports Park Once we get all of us together we can get the Colorado Series up and Running. We need to support SBR and get this track back on the map again. We’ll now have another full time track to add to the series. Lee’s done a great job in repairing the track, added some new pavement and improved the exit and entrance to the track. The place is cleaned up and ready for drivers. Come down this weekend and lets get the Colorado series up and running. Cheap weekend of racing. Open tires and Fuel. Lets get the Colorado series up and running now!!!!
Congrats to all the Colorado Drivers.

ParticipantA HUGE thank you, to my team this weekend for our success at SKUSA Summer Nationals is in order. I would like to personally thank, Arrow for the amazing new X2, Kart Sports North America, Eric Jones, Richie Buxman, Craig Corwin, Andy Seesemann, Larry Frazier, Berry Lewis, Billet Performance for all your help this weekend and for last months race at Miller as well.
THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!
One of the best memories of this weekend was the support from all the Colorado people that were at the race. Every time, I came to the scales or was sitting in tech, I was constantly getting high fives and an amazing amount of support from everyone. So, with that said there are too many people to thank and don’t want to miss anybody so, THANK YOU COLORADO!
Everyone should all be very proud of all there performances and the incredible amount of support from all the teams across the state. Everyone helps everyone it’s really didn’t matter what color your kart was. It’s truly amazing that we just go state to state and have fun in the process with very little problems. Applause…
We are at a huge disadvantage here in Colorado, with karting! Its called winter! We get on the track about 8 months out of the year here and unlike some of the other top programs in the country, who race all year long. This just brings up yet another great point, on how good the talent in this state really is. I witnessed some amazing racing last weekend from all of you. The Colorado programs were awesome!Great job all!
Thank you all for the props on the Karter and in Utah
Scott
